That’s why Magnavox provides several codes for each brand. You basically have to test which one matches your device.

Think of the code as a “language” your remote needs to speak. Once you put in the right code, both the remote and the device understand each other. When the code is wrong, the remote sends signals your TV or DVD player simply ignores.
